New to AbilityMade?
We are lower limb orthotic specialists working primarily in pediatrics. Whether you’re a physiotherapist, occupational therapist, exercise physiologist, paediatrician, or part of a broader care team, we work collaboratively with you and the families you support toward real-world movement, function, and lifestyle goals.
Our advanced digitally fabricated AFOs allow for design possibilities not achievable through traditional manufacture. They offer comfortable, supportive, and often lower-profile options that are more easily repeated or adapted as clients grow and engage in new activities. They also come in a range of fun colours for every personality and style!
Our innovation-led service model was co-developed alongside leading disability and therapy organisations. Clients can see us at a growing number of on-site orthotic clinics within reputable therapy and paediatric centres, aimed at improving access and ease of attending a clinic closer to them.

Our Approach
We take a collaborative, multidisciplinary approach to orthotic care, working closely with you, the client, and their broader care team. This means we don’t just look at the device in isolation. We consider the client's goals, movement patterns, therapy plan, and day-to-day environment to guide decision-making.
By combining broader clinical input with our orthotic expertise, we’re able to design and refine devices that support real-world function. You are welcome to join appointments in person or virtually to align on care plans, progress and clinical decision-making. We keep you involved throughout the process where helpful, so we can work together toward the best possible outcome. We are always keen to chat about orthotics, so please reach out if you have any questions.
